This book was a sweet listen. Two ladies who fall in love on the subway, but destined to be apart until the time gap can be filled. Yes this is a time travel novel. I didn;t expect that, and while that is one of my least favorite tropes, here it works. Jane is stuck. She has been stuck on the Q train for over 40 years, but does not realize that time has passed. August is cynical, and trying to find the meaning of life, and a path for her future. She had an interesting childhood which has left her closed off, and warry around cute girls. This was a fun romp of a romance. Sometimes it felt too long and drawn out but in the end it was worth it. The surrounding cast of characters are a riot. It feels like boho New York has come to life between the pages. Overall this was a fun read. Casey McQuinton is on a hot streak.
